How to Farm Fallen Embers (My Route Vs. Yours?)

Wicked Tips & Tricks
1

Looking on youtube, I didn’t see any upto date routes.. so if you’re interested, hopefully this thread will help you setup a good method for farming.

~ Route duration: 25 mins
~ Regions: Glades, Keep and Shallows
~ Exploring around 50 potential chest spawn locations
~ Expected Loot: 15-30x Fallen Embers (depending on frequency of large chest spawns)

*If you play the video below, put it at 2x speed as there is no commentary.

For reference, I also tried farming the Crucible, which nets around 3-8x every 10 mins.

All that said, if you have a faster way, feel free to drop a link or post the method to your madness farming Fallen Embers in the Breach.

==== Edit ====

Forgot to mention.. during the recording in the Glades, the zone reset. So you’ll see me ignore few “unopened” chests in locations we’ve already visited.

Also at the end of the video, I show off my storage structure.
*One house dedicated to Rune storage (200+ runes atm).
*One house dedicated to Gear and crafting/upgrade materials.

If you setup a house like mine for gear, I recommend a 4x4 structure.
4 Rows = Cloth, Leather, Mesh and Plate
4 Columns = Hat, Chest, Gloves and Pants.

I try to keep 2x purple (plagued) copies of each piece of gear.
*I might change this in the future (once they allow you to remove/swap out infusions).

Put another row for Rings if you want.
*Keep in mind there are 6x possible variants (elemental combinations). So you can store 5x different rings per chest.

Only use the Medium chest btw.
The large only gives an extra 10x spaces and but is twice the size. So you get more storage from using Medium chests.

I also touch on a good practice when ending a run.

  1. Repair gear
  2. Enchant all Whites
  3. Remove desired Runes from Blues
  4. Sell the remaining Blues

End game, purple gear (plagued) is pretty much all you’re gonna wear.
*Though you can setup more chests dedicated to all the legendary “trophies” you get. ;3

Also, a version of this route on a new realm yields even more embers.

So I understand why so many are “realm farming”.
*Definitely something I think @thomasmahler needs to look into and improve upon.

Obviously I’m not asking for a new realm nerf, instead.. I think embers should be just as easy to find, if not more so, once you hit end game on a realm.

What do you guys think?

Well at least I would also prefer a new realm.
You can get more of it. All boss loot. Ichors if you still don’t have all. And you can train yourself at bosses and other mechanics.
At least you will get another realm to endgame and have another realm to farm pestilence. So you can avoid the 24 hour reset.

Do this and repeat several times.
The good is you can also start an new character if you like and switch between builds and realms like you want.

I have to say I like the idea of the realms this is unique of all other games and should be implemented like it is.
